How to ... In Visual Basic

[Danielvb]

Hello Team

Please I need help.
-- I have an application that was installed from a deployment package.

-- the deployment Package create a Directory in the following path C:\Sales containing the executables and other files

-- In the c:\Sales path there is an executable named sales.exe

-- I would like to write another program named MainArea.exe

-- From the MainArea.exe I would like to lunch the sales.exe by pressing a button. Once the MainArea.exe is open I need to close complete the sales.exe

-- Is there is a way or command to call an executable from another application in Visual Basic 6.0

Please advice. Thanks to all for your time

Take a look at the shell function or the shellexecute API. A search for these on this forum will give you some examples. Thanks and Good Luck!
